Since the completion of her doctorate degree, Dr. Alissa went on to teach Master’s level students, supervise counselors gaining licensure, and speak at various conferences and events – all while maintaining her clinical counseling practice.

Dr. Alissa draws deep fulfillment from the work of helping others process their trauma and experience profound healing.
